My report: $49 Apple vs $20 Target silicone cases
Why are 13 mini cases so hard to come by?
Cases for iPhone mini
Does anyone have any recommendations for a slippery iPhone 13 mini case?

This beauty arrived a few hours ago.
The difference in quality and feel is palpable.
The pale pink Target case: The very thin piece of it at the side switch broke awhile back. And when I removed my 12PM from the case, to sell the phone, I discovered that the edge of the phone's glass was chipped in 3 places. (!)
The Pomelo Pink Apple case: Feels much smoother, not sticky-gummy. And when you fit the phone into the case, the MagSafe technology acknowledges the connection with its distinctive dull-but-musical thunk. Can you see the thicker rim around the opening for the lenses? Better protection, I swan.
I replaced my 12 mini with a 13 mini recently and I'm used to running the Apple leather cases on my phones, so I went looking for a dark cherry one. To my surprise, I couldn't find a single one on all of Marketplace, Poshmark, etc. I found ONE on eBay that wasn't obviously fake but it's going for $65. In fact any other real Apple cases are really difficult to find.
Cases for other versions of the 13 are plentiful- was the 13 mini that unpopular? Surely people have these cases kicking around.
